Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
The liver shows slightly increased fat content. This is a stable condition and does not necessarily mean you have any serious disease. This is not related to your impact of steering wheel while driving. You may get liver function tests done to know if medications are required to be taken. You alcohol intake pattern is not causing any problem.
